To Hold a Book
Held in the embrace of my husband's arms;
And now my book's electric type does look
A distant touch: untrusted lover harms.
This book is fashioned to protect the trees;
No tactile means by which to know The Bard.
Access defines our eagerness to read;
And of our mortal words-who is the ward?
But now weary I rest upon my bed,
More pages as I lack page-turn pleasure;
No warm comfort of well-worn page ahead,
The smooth metal now predicted measure.
A holy book gently clasped by clean hands
Will best the metal of modern demands.
